Amount Awarded USD 60,525.00
Grant Period September 01, 2012 – May 31, 2013
Project Description

The goal of the project is to spotlight the impacts of Hungary’s new media laws on the country’s landscape in order to engage, raise awareness among, and generate dialogue between domestic and international civil society groups, journalists, policy makers and the public — and to provide these stakeholders with tools for action.



Objectives:

  • to provide a comprehensive account of the changes to media ownership in Hungary since the media laws were introduced in 2010;
  • to investigate, map and assess how the new regulations and practices are fueling these changes, and whether the new media system is facilitating a concentration of media ownership in Hungary;

  • to increase the transparency of media ownership in Hungary, and of the new regulations and practices that are shaping Hungary’s media landscape;

  • to systematically monitor and document changes to Hungary’s media ownership landscape;

  • to deliver policy-relevant, accessible, actionable data, information and tools that engaged multiple stakeholders across the domestic and international arenas.
